The Swag

The Swag is a luxury mountain retreat perched almost a mile above sea level on the summit of the Great Smoky Mountains near Waynesville, North Carolina. While primarily a boutique inn rather than a dedicated spa, the property weaves wellness throughout the guest experience, offering a serene relaxation space called The Still, curated wine and cocktail tastings, and guided outdoor pursuits such as hiking and horseback riding. Accommodations range from the main Swag House to private cabins and lodges, each showcasing distinctive rustic Appalachian design. Farm-fresh meals served in romantic settings complement the tranquil natural surroundings, making this intimate hideaway an ideal destination for restorative mountain escapes.
